There's an extraordinary moment where Jon turns against the wildlings, and a moment where Mance says, "Keep an eye on him and if he acts the bollocks, throw him off the Wall." He's still not sure about him when he sends him back. Mance had the upper-hand being more experienced. The first time, I'm holding the power because he mistakes who's the king and Mance is sitting in the corner wondering what's going on. Kristofer, who plays Tormund, he was in a few. īut it's true-Kit, Jon Snow, is one of the only people I had scenes with out of the five or so I had. I don't know what she had read, because I didn't read the books, but I told her HBO had taken it another step further. That was, until I convinced my goddaughter that we were going off piece and Jon Snow was my lover. I kept saying, "Don't tell me, don't tell me." But they couldn't help it because they were in love with the story. You know, I have a goddaughter, and there was a moment where she was telling me about the Mance pieces. You do have to connect with the other actor. How did you two find a rapport? And what did that relationship have to be to make the show work? Media Platforms Design Team Most of your scenes are with Kit. Jon Snow (Kit Harrington) and Mance Rayder (Ciarán Hinds). I don't think he gives a fuck if he's loved, but at heart, he has a social drive for improving people's lives. Everyone else is looking for a crown and a throne, though he had the gift of political nous and understanding, he wanted to be their spokesman, not their leader. They kept referring to him as "The King-Beyond-the-Wall." But he says early on that he's not a king. He had a mission, like a super community worker with the guts and drive to corral these 90 tribes who have been let go and left to their own devices. We knew Caesar apart - did he want to be emperor or was he really into a democratic Rome? Whereas, I believe, Mance had a theory that this was a lost tribe of people who needed help. What do you think Mance added to grand tapestry of Game of Thrones? Though there was one time when I came back, I remember saying, "I just need to know, I know you don't like the snow and that's grand by me, but when I sent those guys to the Wall all those months ago and I was going to go light the biggest fire the North has ever seen, do I need to know what happened? Because I'm about to do this scene and I should probably know what the results were…" They said, "Yep, and here it is." They laid out what happened and I could play the scene. I played the words on the page and tried to interpret them as I saw them, with the help of the directors. So I just took what came with the words and suggestions. I'm as low as they come, if I'm being honest. You're not a regal leader of men in the off-hours? I guess he wanted the gravitas and leadership of men. Before I was asked to join, before the third season when they brought Mance in, I was suggested by the main producer, Frank Dolger, who had overseen Rome. Martin, about where Mance came from and what was on his mind?
Weiss and David Benioff, or even George R.R. You're only given bits of the story at a time. It's an attempt of dignity while you're toasting away like a marshmallow. They were most courteous when they gave me the news that "all men must die." My number was up. I only got my storyline, the scenes which were inevitably with Kit, Jon Snow. I was working away and they asked if they asked if they could fit days in. Seriously, the guys asked me to join and I went, "It's in your hands." I was only there three or four days a year, whenever they needed the character. Did you know early on that this would be the moment when Mance Rayder kicked the bucket? Martin found a way, so why not the show?). But before leaving the incinerated Mance behind, Esquire spoke to busy Irish actor Ciarán Hinds about portraying the contemplative leader, ending his Game of Thrones tenure with a bang, and the possibility of a return (because George R.R.
Stannis' actions will inevitably send the Night's Watch barreling in a new direction. Good thing Jon Snow (Kit Harington), the only member of the Night's Watch who gave Mance the time of day, swooped in with a well-placed arrow to spare the guy some third-degree horrors. But that's what happened on last night's Game of Thrones premiere, when Stannis Baratheon executed the shaggy leader in the most gruesome fashion imaginable. When wildling "king" Mance Rayder vowed to light the "biggest fire the North has ever seen," he didn't plan on burning along with it.
Spoilers ahead-don't read this interview if you haven't watched the Game of Thrones season-five premiere episode, "The Wars to Come."
